BRAZIL, ARGENTINA, CHILE, BOLIVIA

Join us on this epic motorcycle ride as we cross the continent from east to west. We begin this ride in a jet boat, charging up to the face of the world’s greatest falls at Foz do Iguazu, only to be followed by a helicopter over them. Eventually we mount or motorbikes and ride west across the vast emptyness of the Chaco before reaching the beautiful Argentine city of Salta. The ride climbs into the Andes crossing into Chile at Paso Sico and onto the wonderful desert oasis town of San Pedro de Atacama. We reach the Chilean coast before turning east and riding through one of the continents most stunning national parks of Lauca. It must be one of bikings greatest thrills to be riding here as we pass herds of Vinuna under the shadow of twin snowcapped volcanoes. We cross the high desertscapes of the Altiplano before arriving in the wonderful La Paz.
